https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ shows 27.0.0.183 as the current |
| 11 |
Flash version. If you don't want to give up on Flash and uninstall it |
| 12 |
altogether, I suggest that you check daily at this URL. If a new |
| 13 |
version shows up, download the ".tar.gz for linux" version, and manually |
| 14 |
replace libflashplayer.so (or whatever it's called) with the new one. |

|
| 16 |
Flash vulnerabilities, and updates, come so fast and furious that |
| 17 |
Portage can't keep up with them. |
